Time to meet the Aura Front Office Superstars that lighten the day, keep the ship running and do an all round aura-some job of hosting our manuhiri in Rotorua!
Ellen | Top Lady Boss | General Manager of Keeping The Ship Running
If you’ve visited Aura over the past years, you would likely have bumped into Ellen. After moving to Rotorua four years ago and starting work at Aura a day later she’s been a constant fixture around the office, on the phone and pretty much all over the property.
You’ll often find her exploring new places (eateries) around town, swimming at the lakes or enjoying our beautiful Whakarewarewa Forest on bike. She thinks Rotorua is such an awesome place she even purchased a property here, the highlight of which has been painting her front door pink!

Chloe | Team Leader | Lady Fixer
Brought up in Rotorua and a part of Team Aura for the past three years, Chloe may be the smiliest human you see around the place. She is our resident maintenance queen and splits her time at Aura between being a guest extraordinaire in the office and keeping our grounds looking lush and tidy.
She’s an absolute animal lover and book worm, is a consistent croissant eater and loves swimming in the lake, even more so when it’s cold and icy!

You can find her travelling around the region in her cute done up caravan or supporting her partner on the race track on the weekends.
